Listening to Charles Goyette interview a reporter up in Show Low right now. Bureau of Indian Affairs have detained and questioned the individual but they will not say who the person is or if they are a member of the indian tribe.

Info about the President's visit was announced by AP. The reporters up there on the scene didn't know anything about it.

After the revelation a few weeks back about Hispanic Muslims, could we have a Mohammad Running Deer on our hands?

Nah these are probably homegrown killers, of the forest that is.

Chief Seattle would not be pleased.

Isn't it amazing that Show Low has been saved so far? The fire is only a mile away. Simply amazing......prayers have been answered with God saying yes to holding back the flames, so far anyway.
To: rwfromkansas
Yes. Jim Paxon said this morning that the humidity levels rose unexpectedly overnight and this really helped slow the advance of the fire. Pray the weather holds...

Motorcycle Greggo wants to know if the Hayman, What's Up, Rodeo fires might merge. Talk about flames.

Nah these are probably homegrown killers, of the forest that is. The 'homegrown forest killers' in this scenario are the eco-fascists that people organizations like the Sierra Club and the Wilderness Society, who prohibit PROPER management of our forests, resulting in the utter devastation of millions of acres in the west. These people have much in common with the 9/11 terrorists...they just worship a different god(dess).
To: who knows what evil?; Carry_Okie
I agree, Carry_okie says it best I think:
As environmental organizations have grown, their common agenda has diverged from its purpose. Their adherents' principle goal has devolved to pursuit of funding to support a political and legal agenda. They have ignored scienfific evidence and overridden legitimate discourse over technical differences in the name of preserving entrenched bureaucracies and political power groups feeding off taxes, grants, and lawsuits. It has even led to an odd form of corporate welfare: membership in an oligopoly in return for selling out or buying up smaller competitors. The consequences have compounded. Ruined lives have been rendered into political cannon fodder. In the conduct of battle, the environment has been subordinated to the status of a political hostage. Much like a child in a custody case, the object of the dispute is the one that suffers.Natural Process, That Environmental Laws May Serve the Laws of Nature, Mark Edward Vande Pol
This has been an eye opener for me to see the truth played out for the last couple weeks with wild fires raging.
Carry_Okie, I hope you don't mind my quoting from your book.

They may worship different divinities, but they have the same enemy, us. Has often been enough for an alliance. Remember how an animal-rights envirowacko killed Pim Fortuyn, the Islamists' nemesis in Holland.

I'm still praying for that rain!!! This is a miracle that Show Low's not been hit yet.
To: Brad's Gramma
It's been years since I drove through Show Low. Does the town intersect the forest? Los Alamos had pines running some blocks into town.
The Show Low fire is about 6 times bigger than ours was. It's rather scary (even though the fire only got about 3 miles from me.) Evacuations are mostly for smoke.
And speaking of smoke, the mountains around Santa Fé and Albuquerque are completely obscured by smoke. The smoke seems to be coming from Show Low (300 miles) and Colorado (200 to 300 miles). We have a few fires still going in Northern New Mexico but nothing like Arizona or Colorado. Looks like the smoke cloud covers at least 100,000 sq miles.

It's been years since I drove through Show Low. Does the town intersect the forest? I don't know, I'm really sorry. I'm in CA...just watching this. We have relatives in the Phoenix area, go over there frequently, and living in a tinderbox ourselves.....
Dittomom, do you know the answer to this?
To: Doctor Stochastic
Show Low is in the forest. Or was.
Pavement and structures knocked down a helluva' lot of pine.
If a bird hopped from pine to pine, that bird could come into Show Low from any direction. So cold fire.
To: dittomom
How do we know Al Queda isn't travelling around the dry tinderbox areas of USA starting these fires?
Are we on the lookout for middle-eastern men out in the wilderness?
...oops, I forgot our crybaby whiny-butt liberal Westerners don't like racial profiling!
